Hi,
it seems you have PirateBox 1.0 , but auto flash was introduced with 1.1 .

Did you try
ssh root@192.168.1.1
?

If you omit "root", then your local username will be used and that won't work.

You can also try this method: Reflash via failsafe mode and USB

best regards Matthias

yep, but I dont know the password, tried all mine and admin/password and that didnt work.
Also in my original post I said it refuses telnet.

Then you need to recover it via failsafe mode .. a bit difficult, but manageable...
